Liebe Frauen und Herren, ich suche die originale Fassung dieser Zitat aus "Joseph und seine Brüder", IV (Joseph der Ernährer):
"And just because it is so solemn it must be treated with a light touch. For lightness, my friend, flippancy, the artful jest, that is God’s very best gift to man, the profoundest knowledge we have of that complex, questionable thing we call life ... Only in lightness can the spirit of man rise above; with a laugh at being faced with the unanswerable, perhaps he can make even God Himself, the great Unanswering, laugh"
Hoffentlich kann jemand helfen. Herzlichen Dank,
Lydia
